Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [28th - 30th Dec 2020]

Like the past 5 times we have played them and it ended 0-0. In our last 5 meetings only 3 goals have been scored. Wolves cannot be bothered to try and win the game and we are unable to break them down. It's the one game of the season I wish I was at work or something.

Wolves have created far more than you...I don't understand how you're suggesting that they're not trying to win it.

Well when Matic is playing mostly as a 3rd centre half then it can't be a surprise that United aren't creating much. Pogba back to his languid worst, looking for the odd Hollywood pass but splaying them wide and handsome. Let's see what the 2nd half brings.

Pochettino gets a job (more or less) and we turn to garbage again.

Didn't see that coming. Since Ole took over we've always done well for a couple of months, then turned to trash for a couple of months. Standard stuff.

Poch is so good he can only get a job at PSG which no one wants as it is a farmer's league......

I'd also suggest that Shaw for Telles is a defensive change, so clearly Utd are also worried about Wolves going forward

Does pogba even play football

He's fallen over his own feet about three times now. He'll pull an absolute worldie out of the bag at some point now. Such a frustrating player

Playing the same game as Wolves. Hit em on the counter.

The approach you've spent the whole first half criticising?

Yes because the way Wolves setup you need to lure them into a false sense of security. Like I have said I have watched this game 7 times already. Each manager has got each other sussed out to perfection.

 

[Fubsy]

Not sure who is slower, Matic or Pogba. Neither of them can catch anyone once beaten. Tbh the only thing I've seen Pogba catch in 2020 is covid.

If this is us setting down a marker. It's gonna be a long painful season.
So slow in passing with no tempo. It's like a pre season game

 

[McBain]

Moss is probably the worst active ref there is and considering the standard of refs these days that’s impressive stuff.

 

[Robbo]

He should go to the Norwegian league, that's all you need for the Man Utd job

He's had more touches than the wolves keeper

Have you ever watched a Man Utd Vs Wolves game. It has got nothing to do with form. It is just how Wolves stifle everything. Infact Wolves games in general are like this. 1 goal games. Only City and Pool have been able to break them down.

 

[robfosters]

That would have been harsh

 

[adam cool dude]

Penalty. Thank god. Pah

 

[vanandjuanunited]

Rashford is so frustrating

 

[McBain]

Pointless booking the keeper for time wasting he won’t stop and he won’t send him off. Completely pointless booking.

 

[robfosters]

Shearer couldn’t sound more bored if he tried.
